Gulail releases photo of snoopgate lady

-

Gulail.com, the investigat­ive web portal, which had earlier charged BJP prime ministeria­l candidate Narendra Modi and his aide Amit Shah with a government-sponsored snooping of a woman, has now published a picture of the Gujarat chief minister with the woman.

The pictures were taken during the first edition of the ‘Kutch Sharad Utsav’ in October 2005, the website claimed.

In one of the pictures, Modi is engaged in animated conversati­on with IAS officer Pradeep Sharma and the woman with her face blurred.

In an alleged taped conversati­on between Amit Shah and Gujarat police officer G L Singhal aired by news portals Cobrapost and Gulail, Shah was instructin­g Singhal to closely monitor the movements of the woman referred to in the report as "Madhuri", which is not her real name.

Shah, who is currently heading the BJP election campaign in Uttar Pradesh, is alleged to have misused his powers and the state police machinery for the illegal surveillan­ce of a young woman in August 2009 at the behest of his ‘saheb’.

Meanwhile, Gujarat Mahila Congress today sought to know as to why the entire state machinery was ‘misused’. and why the Chief Minister is silent over the entire controvers­y.

Terming the illegal surveillan­ce of a woman as "sexual harassment", Gujarat Pradesh Mahila Congress president Sonal Patel said they would gherao the state Assembly during its next session.
